Demag Standard Cranes

Performance and efficiency at the highest level

 Demag sets crane standards for the future

Standard solutions made by Demag offer outstanding

quality, efficiency and reliability at the highest level. Every
crane and every crane component reflects decades of
crane expertise and reliability as a partner for the industry.

Innovation for greater efficiency to benefit our

customers
With the new DR rope hoist, Demag Cranes & Components
has introduced an extended state-of-the-art for standard
crane applications with loads weighing up to 50 t and, at
the same time, an entirely new crane philosophy.

The C shape of the Demag DR rope hoist design is ideally

suited to crane applications. Thanks to the many benefits
offered by the new DR rope hoist,
the entire crane operates much more efficiently.

 Single-girder overhead travelling cranes with rolled profile girder

ELKE single-girder overhead travelling cranes with a
rolled profile girder as the load bearing structure offer
outstanding value for money. The use of rolled steel
sections for the crane girder and travelling rope hoists
of optimum design for crane applications make these
cranes the optimum solution for light loads and relatively
small spans. As a particularly inexpensive entry-level
model offering the usual high level of Demag quality,
ELKE cranes can be integrated into existing workshops or
new buildings as workshop cranes, for example.
ELKE standard cranes ensure efficient and fatigue-free
load handling thanks to the higher cross-travel speed and
optimised ergonomic control pendants. When fitted
with features such as infinitely variable-speed cross-travel
drives, they also make it possible to achieve low-sway
travel motions for gentle handling and precise positioning
of loads.
In addition, they also offer high reliability and safety as
well as a long service life combined with high levels of
operating efficiency by all components.
